Magic Hour
Have you ever been to a bar, club, or party where you're having a good time with friends, time goes by, everyone's enjoying themselves, and all of the sudden you notice the venue is chock full of dudes and the women seem to have vanished? What once may have been a pretty chill place with a good gender ratio is now a sausage fest. Worse still is that of the few women who remain, their average attractiveness has taken a nosedive.
If this sounds familiar, then congratulations on noticing when the "magic hour" just ended.
Magic Hour is a term I coined years ago to describe a venue's peak time of attendance. This time period typically is the hour or so preceeding your realization the venue is now full of dudes. This information is crutial as you should be adjusting your logistics to compensate.
Logistics are often the missing key for good game and will make or break your night. Furthermore, do you know why this magic hour occurs? Guys who spent too much time pregaming to save money and/or build up their courage finally flood the bars and the high quality women who were there to go home with someone... already did. That's why if you stick around after magic hour has ended you're a sucker as the joke is on you. Have fun spanking it, or settling for the bottom of the barrel.
To avoid the problems of being out late at bars and clubs, realize you don't have to be out late at all in the first place! My advice is to go earlier and structure your logistics as such that you already know where you're going and when so you can avoid the sausage fest that's bound to occur.
Leaving with the women ahead of time mitigates the logistical logjams that comes along with all of the guys showing up, and the women are not so wasted to do anything with because it's earlier that they're not falling down drunk to the point their friends pulling them away from you. Instead this gives you the opportunity to lead the group of women away from the venue to do something fun and exciting, which is why they went out to begin with.
One last thing: magic hour not only varies from city to city, but also venue to venue in a city.

Derp, I stickied the crosspost, not the original thread. All fixed now.

This is a good point. Most people think that the night doesn't even start until 10:30 or so, and you're supposed to stay out until 3AM before going home with a woman, because that's what people did in college. But in college, people lived on their parents' money, skipped classes or didn't start class until noon, and there were entire streets of bars just for college kids to meet and hook up.
Out in the real world, young professionals and 30 somethings have work, and when it's the weekend they have real lives and hobbies and don't want to be up until 3AM. They go out with their friends for drinks after work and dinner. If a decent guy hits on her, a 25 year old girl will go home with him by 9 or 10 PM. She doesn't want to hang around in a bar until 3AM drinking with her slutty friends and comparing dress lengths and boob sizes. She's not in college any more, is spending her own money, and she has shit to do tomorrow.
Guys would be surprised how many women in the 25-35 age range with jobs are down for a regular booty call. No games, no strings, no dating. She gets home from work, has some food, texts at 8:00, the guy shows up at 8:30, minimal chit-chat, minimal kissing, sex, minimal cuddling, the guy leaves at 9:45, she showers, and she goes to bed. Dating is for when she's looking for a boyfriend, and the bar is for going out with friends or for when she's sick of her current booty call. For a girl in her position, all those one-time things with Tinder guys are just her looking for a guy who doesn't suck in bed and isn't annoying to be around that can become a regular thing when she gets horny.

Yup. College kids not going out until midnight because they pregamed at the dorm where it was cheaper just made sense. College bars by me are exactly like that, pretty empty and chill and then around midnight they're slammed. That's great, so go earlier and pull by 11:30 before all the thirsty dudebros show up.

Im willing to bet 1 1/2 hours from closing is the last few moments decent women will be in the place.

It varies. There's still going to be women around, but it's just not the smorgasbord it is before it becomes full of chode crystals and swinging dicks.

Magic hour is 8pm to 1030pm almost anywhere.
Anyone still there at 30mins before closing wants to go home with someone...

You're missing the forest for the trees. Focus less on the exception and more on improving your logistics. Recognizing magic hour's existence and using it to your advantage is fucking money!
